The Department of Defense's Missions and Installation Contracting Command at West Point plans to award a sole source contract under the authority of 10 USC 2304(c)(1) and Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, indicating that only one responsible source can fulfill the agency's requirements. This action is based on NAICS code 611710, with a size standard of $15 million, and is not open for competitive bidding or solicitation. The contract aims to secure SAT scores, relevant code numbers, and proprietary data related to high school students and enlisted soldiers. This information facilitates direct communication with guidance counselors and administrators, supporting recruitment efforts for the United States Military Academy and its Preparatory School. No solicitation package or request for quotations will be issued for this contract. The contract award intends to streamline access to critical recruitment data unique to the awarded source, reflecting the specialized nature of the information and the necessity for a sole source. The contracting office overseeing this effort is located in West Point, New York, and this procurement supports the military academies' mission by enhancing their recruitment capabilities through the acquisition of targeted, proprietary student information.
